5 January, 2016 - Atlanta - This year Surf Expo celebrates its 40th anniversary as the multi-billion dollar surfing industry’s largest and longest running tradeshow. The launch of the tradeshow in 1976 coincided with the establishment of pro surfing and a lifestyle that has captured the imagination of the world.

To commemorate its 40th anniversary, Surf Expo in January 2016 will be presenting a film and photographic exhibition of Bustin' Down the Door, a film that chronicles the rise of pro surfing and the emergence of the surfing industry over a tumultuous year in 1976.

29 November, 2015 - A skateboarder and surfer since his childhood, Vincent has also always had an eye for fashion. In order to share his lifestyle with others, in 2011 he launched Surfin Estate, a blog with a fresh new take on the rider lifestyle drawing inspiration from fashion, art and music. Four years later, Surfin Estate has become a brand and Vincent and his partners have just recently opened their first concept store in Hossegor France.

23 November, 2015 - Ted Grambeau’s new project “the art of awareness – the rising sea level” debuts globally this week. The A-list photographer has created this personal photographic project to draw attention to rising sea levels and motivate surfers and the general public to do something about it.

“Two years ago, 730 sunrises ago, I made a personal commitment to creatively document this silent change - hence this photographic series - SEALEVEL,” said Grambeau. “Exploring the elements and interplay of the ocean before sunrise. Distilling the elements to a bare minimum to express a body of work that is purely abstract. Captured moments from nature’s rich pallet of colours, its subtle tones and myriad of hues reflecting the mood of each new day.”
